Reusable 3D-Printed TPS
Additively manufactured thermal protection that flies again and again. Net-shape printing eliminates tooling and slashes lead times from months to days.
Canopy Aerospace & Defense
Reusable, additive-manufactured heat shields and thermal protection systems — engineered from the depths to the stars. Speed to solution for the next generation of re-entry, hypersonics, and propulsion.
Capabilities
Our thermal protection systems are 3D-printed from ultra-high-temperature ceramics — reusable, lighter, and built in days, not months.
Additively manufactured thermal protection that flies again and again. Net-shape printing eliminates tooling and slashes lead times from months to days.
Mission-tuned aeroshells and heat shields for capsules, landers, and re-entry vehicles — designed, printed, and qualified under one roof.
Proprietary UHTC formulations that hold their structure past 2,000 °C, protecting vehicles through the most extreme thermal loads of flight.
A vertically integrated additive workflow takes you from requirement to flight-ready hardware at the pace emerging space and defense programs demand.
Industries Served
Wherever extreme heat is the limiting factor, Canopy delivers the shield.
Reusable thermal protection for capsules, upper stages, and landers. We help launch and in-space programs fly more often, recover more hardware, and lower cost per mission.
